. >> this week, you've seen from a number of republicans from senator mccain, to speaker boehner, criticism of president obama about his handling of libya. is that going to be the main focal point this weekend in des moines? >> i think it's going toish one of the major topics, yeah. you know, we're now in the precipice of a third war in the middle east that the president who said he didn't want to do the war thing. and so here now is an opportunity for republicans to take to task the administration on its middle east policy, and more specifically its policy in libya. and i think you're going to hear that sound bite quite often over the next few days, as republicans who are gearing up for the 2012 caucus in iowa, and the primaries in new hampshire, and elsewhere, are going to really try to hone their message and clearly define themselves. this is going to be an interesting little dance over the next few weeks as we get geared up for the first debate in south carolina in may, as these individuals begin to define their message against the president, and each other. >> and what do you think tha
